Speakeasy Briefs: Junk in the front

Here’s a timely solution for guys with extra gear to carry at the start of outdoor adventure season. If you’re like most men, you’re constantly looking for more storage on your person: I know, there’s always man-bags and pockets but sometimes they just aren’t enough! Fear no more: Speakeasy Briefs has the solution. Co-founders and San Francisco locals Jeff Schneider and Dan Goldman created the new boxer-briefs with a special “speakeasy” front pocket after years as avid travelers and music festivalgoers with a need for a little secret storage place. It never occurred to me I might be underutilizing this area for its cargo capacity. Speakeasy touts the front pouch pocket is perfect for “money, passports, keys, cellphones, and even a flask!” Consumer, be warned: Some men may have more space available in that area than others.

Speakeasy’s kickstarter campaign launches Thursday, April 25. Briefs are currently available as Kickstarter benefits in teal or black, both with white piping. Capitalizing on their boozy name, they’ve also created a Speakeasy-branded 6 oz. stainless steel flask, a perfect fit for that front pocket.

No word yet if the founders have invented a graceful way to remove accoutrements from the front pocket without getting arrested.
